[ 06.25.2009 ] This Saturday is the "Go Skateboarding Day" raindate, the weather looks good so far so make sure to roll through on 6.27.2009. Pass the info on! I actually wrecked my ankle last weekend and tore some ligaments but even if someone has to carry me across the bridge, I'm not missing this event. If you haven't heard, there's a new board company out of Long Island. It's small but off to a good start, rising from the ashes of the short lived Forte Skateboards is Seagle Skateboards. While there isn't much info to be had about the company yet and their website has yet to launch (not to mention that it's missing the obligatory OfficialNewYork link), but I can say its being built on a foundation of good skateboarding as shown in their premiere web promo. If that's not good enough to start a skateboard brand, then I don't know what is. Here's some local stuff to check out: - Seagle 2009 promo - Zoo York video premiere at KCDC Saturday - Joseph and friends skating the new Forest Park setup - New (old) King of Spring 2009 footage - Slap's (old) article about POETS skateshop  [ 06.19.2009 ] This Sunday is "Go Skateboarding Day", but with the weather being what it is a the event has been postponed, the rain date has been set for 06.27.2009. Pass the info on! If you're stuck inside due to the weather, here's some stuff to check out: - Footage from Rooftop Rampage - Footage from Clean up the Banks - Skateboarder Mag footage from Back to the Banks - Transworld Mag footage from Manny Mania  [ 06.06.2009 ] When you get tired of watching your favorite pros throwing tricks with 1000 of your best friends today at the Back to the Banks contest take a minute to head over to the LES Skatepark (aka chinatown skatepark aka coleman oval skatepark) to check out the new skatures that Team Pain installed thanks to open road, the Tony Hawk Foundation, Steve@5boro, and the NYCSA. If you're too wasted to skate (or watch skating) from last night's 5boro 13th Anniversary Party, then why not go for a jog at the 3rd ANNUAL "Run For Harold" Bridge Run. If you missed the Zoo York "State of Mind" Premiere, Eby wrote an excellent review of the evening's festivities.  [ 06.01.2009 ] Today there will be an open session for input for the design of the new skate park in Canarsie Park. Stop by and get involved, the more you do the less skate parks in NYC will suck. While I'm still waiting on the NYPD filmer to get me the footage from the clean up the banks event, Reda wasted no time in getting his commentary on the King of Spring contest. This week is going to be pretty busy with the new Zoo York Video premiering on Thursday (6/4), 5boro celebrating their 13th anniversary on Friday (6/5), the Back to the Banks contest on Saturday (6/6), and Redbull's Manny Mania (6/7) on Sunday. Until then here's some stuff to check out: - Eli Reed's Bangin' on the Berrics - Danny Supa's Bangin' on the Berrics - Steve Rodriguez's interview in Time Out New York [ old news ]   [an error occurred while processing this directive] [an error occurred while processing this directive]   ** Indicates commercial segment   I didn't always have my own cup to drink from.. <<   Harold Hunter RIP.. <<   What's the best shoe to skate on? <<   Post your Footage.. <<   Music for YOUR part.. <<   Who got the best style? <<   Go Skate Day - NYC SkateJam - 2006.. <<   Manhattan Bridge Skatepark / LES skatepark .. <<   FLIPMODE video for download.. <<   NYC pro skateboarders.. <<   Locals: 1  Lurkers: 13   shredd nyc
